spot on pifko - hadn't seen that one - thanks!
crofty am after a track style ends or forward facing without a hanger - not keen on a conversion. Bit more background info in that i am after a bike to keep for life for l'eroica been the last 2 times on two different vintage bikes and this time i want to ride it fixed or singlespeed on an authentic bike as possible
thanks!
tom
p.s i doubt i will find anything perfect - what i really want is a jack taylor fixed tourer but i know they are like rocking horse manure

Tilover,
this is a 1978 Claud Butler and it does have a gear hangar.. i have somewhere all the SunTour / Weinman clobber to go on it and SR bars and stem. But i've just offered the frame and forks to another " wanted " ad.... will keep you posted.
Crofty.
ps.

nice bike, crofty! gives me some ideas... i've got a frame by jack kirk from about the same era, but haven't really had a clue about what sort of stuff i need to get, so this is really helpful to give me some ideas.
i shall put it in another thread sometime (maybe the current projects one, although i was kinda thinking of a specific jack kirk one, to see if i could try to find out more about the frame and builder).

Would 57cm really be too small? Shame…
Nice Old Claude Butler track/road/pathThis pretty Woodrup is about your size, no?
And this old Condor has a short-ish ST, but a 57.5 TT which might do the job…

I think the guy wants £500 for it, a bit pricey, I know.
It's on Gumtree in Glasgow.
